The bench was hearing an intra court appeal (ICA) filed by Awan against an earlier ruling which ordered his removal from the post. A single bench had declared his appointment unlawful based on a petition filed by a local citizen who alleged that the former chairman was hired without following the selection procedure laid in the Telecommunication Act and consideration of other eligible candidates for the position.
The ex-chairman of PTA said he was appointed after the prime minister’s approval.
